That sounds correct. Swimming with whales occurs in the months when the whales are frequenting the area, so July-Mid September roughly, as whales can on most occasions be guaranteed. Whale watching would be earlier as seeing the whales can be a hit and miss situation in June.

Hi Zoe I think the turtle tour will be ok for a 2 yr old. The tour is inside the reef on a glass bottom boat so the boat was very smooth on the day we did it. Just see ecotours re life vest for the little one. Hope this helps and you have a great time. Pete

Hi LuxuryGipsy, Thank you for your question. Depending on whether you would like to do a full day tour or a shorter tour, the timings differ. We have 1, 2 and 3 hour tours from our glass bottom boat, or a 6-7 hour tour for our Marine Eco Safari with manta rays. All tours give you the opportunity to explore the reef and see the amazing marine life. The wind can pick up at certain times but as we are protected by the outer barrier reef, we can still run tours in most conditions unless the wind is very strong. Please visit our website for more information. Kind regards, The team at Coral Bay Ecotours.

See the websites for the prices. The Mantra Ray snorkelling and the Whale Sharks snorkelling are two separate trips, one inside the reef and one outside. So that’s two days. An extra day would be a good idea as well. The caravan and camping sites will be heavily booked at that time as well so you should book that well in advance. I would say make first priority the Mantra Rays for Coral Bay if you are also going to Exmouth. There are plenty of operators for Whale Sharks in Exmouth.

Hi Alicia, Sorry for overlooking your question! We hope you did get through to us via phone or email. Thanks for your question! Kind Regards, Coral Bay Ecotours

Hi Joanne, thanks for your question! We schedule a whale shark tour every day of the week during whale sharks season which begins in March and ends sometime around July. There is a minimum number of 8 people to confirm a tour and a maximum number of 20 swimmers, so we would advise to book as early as possible! We meet at the shop at 7:30 am on the morning of the tour, and expect to get back sometime between 3:30 and 5pm, depending on how long it takes to find the sharks or how far we have to travel to them. To book the whale shark tour, it is very unlikely that we would have a space on the day so book as early as possible. Thanks for you question and we hope to see you in the future.

Hi Paul, thanks for your question. That is a great time to do the whale shark tour. As it is a full day tour, running from 7.30am until between 3 and 5pm, you would be looking to doing it on May 3rd, which is still available. The cost for this tour is $380 per adult if you book and pay in full by December 31st, which is our early bird rate. After this, the fee becomes $395 per adult. The tour is focused on whale sharks, but we do start the day with a reef snorkel over the coral gardens. This is where we may see turtles, reef sharks, octopus and many fish and corals. After the reef snorkel, we head out in search of the whale sharks, with the help of a spotter plane also. Depending on how long we need to give everyone a fantastic whale shark experience, there may be time for another reef snorkel on the way back. Our focus is the whale sharks, but should we come across something else along the way, we should be able to go have a look. If you would like to do a booking, feel free to contact our office directly either via phone or email.

Hello Barbeton, Yes, the Marine Ecotour is what our manta ray tour is called because we also take guests to other sights on the Ningaloo Reef to show as much of it as we can.

Hello, thank you for your interest in our tours. We are unable to swim with dolphins here due to license terms and conditions, however we do certainly swim with various types of sharks here. Every day is quite different depending on the weather, the snorkel sites, the average of the group's abilities and so forth. We try our very best to cater to all levels of fitness and abilities so that everyone is able to enjoy the wonders of the Ningaloo Reef though. If you could elaborate more on your disability and which tour you are interested in, we can certainly provide you with further information.

Hi there, thanks for getting in touch with us. Yes, we do currently have availability for this Thursday 14th May. Places are filling very fast so best to book asap to avoid disappointment. Yes, we sell beautiful footage from throughout the day taken by our very talented videographer and lead swimmer, plus still photos and additional photos from around the Ningaloo reef on a 4GB USB for $60. There are no guarantees on wildlife unfortunately, but we are generally seeing the Whale Sharks every day at the moment. We did have a no sighting a week or so ago, every day is different though. When conditions are nice, they are easier to find, which they are this week. Let us know either by email or phone 089942 5885 to make a booking :) We hope to welcome you here shortly
